## Discrepancy

MECHANIC FOUND DEFECT IN FLAP TRACK AT INBOARD END OF BOTH FLAPS.  DEFECT WAS CAUSED BY FLAP ROLLERS IN FULL UP POSITION.  SUGGEST FLAP REMOVAL AT ANNUAL AND/OR 100-HOUR FOR PROPER INSPECTION.  ALSO, AN INBOARD FLAP BUMPER MAY BE NEEDED TO STOP VIBRATION AND SIDE LOAD.  NOTE:  SIMILAR DEFECT FOUND ON BEECH MODELS 33, 35, A36 AND 55.
